What Does A Gushing Deep Seated Water Well Look Like?
Just watch and wait for it to see a gushing Deep Seated Water well! When drawing water from deep underground, on rare occasions it can reach the surface under pressure with results that can be quite spectacular. “Gusher” wells can occur when the drilling equipment reaches an entry point to a deeper aquifer through a…

It also set the altitude record for producing a plume of smoke that reached 35 miles (58 kilometers) into the stratosphere. However, that plume of “smoke” was comprised mostly…
Read MoreDeep Seated Water Aquifer Providing Billions of Gallons of Fresh Water to Chicago
As much of the planet struggles with drought, a Deep Seated Water aquifer has been providing Chicago and parts of Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, and Indiana with hundreds of billions of gallons of fresh water. The “Deep Sandstone Aquifer” (technically known as the Cambrian-Ordovician Sandstone Aquifer System) has been supplying increasing amounts of fresh water for…

End the Costly Search for Water Finding fresh groundwater for water wells, especially in arid regions, can be expensive and challenging. The success rate of drilling a useful well averages between 30-40% in areas where water is scarce. This means that drilling a “dry hole” is more likely than finding the water a farmer or…
Read MoreHuge New Deep Seated Water Aquifer Discovered in Texas
More Evidence of Fresh Deep Seated Water Last fall while exploring for oil and gas deposits in southwest Texas, a driller instead found a huge freshwater deep aquifer. Now called the Maverick Basin Aquifer, it is known to be at least 3,000 square miles in area and averages 1,000 feet thick in most places. This…
